If you happen to be flying over Italy's Verona region, you might see a giant work of art in honor of the Rio Olympics from the sky. "Land artist" Dario Gambarin paid tribute to the upcoming Olympics in Rio on Tuesday, by carving a huge earth mural in a field that stretches for nearly 600 feet. The artwork depicts Rio's Christ the Redeemer statue holding five Olympic rings just in time for the Rio Olympics opening ceremony on August 6.
Workers from Britain's National Health Service (NHS) hold a picket line outside St Bartholomew's Hospital in London as both junior and senior doctors go on strike for the longest period yet. Junior doctors and first time consultants in England launched their first ever joint strike day on September 20. Now, joint action in their pay dispute with the government will last for three days from 0600 GMT on Monday 2 October to 0600 GMT on Thursday 5 October. Service will be maintained at lower levels usually only seen on Christmas Day. IMAGES
Ambulances can be seen outside the emergency department of the Royal London Hospital, as drivers and paramedics stage a second strike, calling for pay increases that more closely match high inflation, joined this time by emergency call handlers. The government has introduced legislation which will enforce minimum service levels from striking workers. Unions say life-threatening emergencies are still being responded to, and that the new law would be unworkable. IMAGES
